Nike All Court Hispanic Heritage Month
Posted by George Kiel III | Oct 8, 2008 Hispanic Heritage Month is a period recognizing the contributions of Hispanic Americans to the United States. It lasts from September 15th to October 15th. Therefore, with a week left, it is only right to spot a sneaker inspired by this specific celebration surfacing on the web. The Nike All Court Hispanic Heritage was designed by Nike designer Kiki McGehee in observance of this time period.
An artistic technique called piteado is featured on this sneaker in which pita (thread made from fiber) is imprinted onto to leather in decorative patterns. This style has been used on belts, sandals, saddles and boots consistently in Latin America culture. The word “Pride†is visible on the ankle area in a font that was used by the low rider culture of the southwest. Floral accents also appear throughout the sneaker as well. Bad news. This special edition will not be available for retail. What do you think? ¿Bonito o Feo? |

There isn’t anything I like about this shoe one bit! Nike shoulda scrapped this like they did with the first version of the Lebron 6.
